In Austin, vending machines might seem like background furniture serving a small purpose, but they’re actually powering something much bigger and are part of a $40.04 billion economic engine.
Some of the very best vending in the United States is serviced, stocked, and supported by an entrepreneur trained by Naturals2Go and who lives and works in your community. And now, with the addition of Patrice Chatmon, Naturals2Go’s new Regional Business Developer for Austin, we’re growing our mission to connect these well-trained, local, and independent vending owners to businesses, schools, and facilities. We know more organizations in Austin and the employees and community they serve, deserve reliable, high-capacity, highly flexible smart vending machines, reliable vending service and real snacking satisfaction.
Chatmon says. “I’m excited to build meaningful relationships within the Austin community and help companies enhance the daily experience within their workplace”. With a background in fitness and holistic wellness, I understand how access to the right food and beverage options, whether classic favorites or more health-conscious choices can support well-being, energy, and productivity. I appreciate that Naturals2Go offers customizable solutions that reflect each organization’s unique culture and needs.
Patrice’s role is simple but impactful: help match businesses in Austin with high-capacity, smart vending machines that are operated by local Naturals2Go-trained entrepreneurs. These are not corporate-owned routes or franchise chains. They’re independently owned and passionately operated businesses, supported by our full training, technology, and service ecosystem. Patrice works directly with business leaders to understand their unique needs and pair them with a local operator who cares as much about service as they do about snacks.
So whether your team needs healthy options, your guests need convenience, or your facility just wants vending that actually works—Patrice is your go-to connection. Together with our network of dedicated local owners, she is helping shape a better vending experience for Austin one machine, one business, and one snack at a time.
